I never worked with Randy personally, but with the attractions industry being as small and as personable as it is, you can’t help but know each other in some way. I wanted to share my heartfelt condolences for the loss of somebody so special to those closest to him. May peace and love be with you in this time.
God bless,
Jon Tozer

Randy was such a nice person. I remember when he adopted my moms dog, Rob and I laughed when he opened the back of his car and he had it completely set up for their family member, including food an water in case she was stressed. Rob would always talk about the things they joked about at work and adored him.
Heaven has a new angel lookong down on us ❤️

What an inspiration you have been in my life Cindy. I know most everyone who knew of you and your love for Randy, felt the same- They saw the glow and love as if it were tangible and palpable. I am honored to have seen such love manifested in this life and know it continues in Gods Glory.

Cindy and the Price and Severson,
My sincere condolences to you all during these difficult times. I tremendously enjoyed Randy’s visit to the shop during his last time at home and hearing how happy he was with the work they were doing in Abu Dhabi, how rewarding it was and how he felt so appreciated for his expertise and contribution.
Trish and I, and the crew at K & T will miss Randy greatly. It was always a pleasure seeing his smiling face.

Cindy and the Price family,
I’m so sorry for your loss, and I’m praying for you all.
I met Randy at Oceaneering after transferring from Houston. He was an extremely caring person that always wore his heart on his sleeve. He always had an arsenal of jokes to make the work day a little easier. Within the first 5 minutes of meeting him, he had this (okay, we’re friends now!) attitude. You could tell he cared by his actions. If you didn’t understand something he would say “let’s figure it out” even if he already knew the answer. He enjoyed watching (and helping) others figure out complex problems. He was a teacher, a mentor, and a friend. I’m a better person for knowing him.
Rest in Peace Randy…

My favorite story about Randy is from about 11 years ago. My sister had worked very hard to get in great shape with consistent gym work and a clean diet. Cindy and I were looking thru old photos and she asked Randy while I was visiting one day, “Aren’t you glad I got in shape?”. He said, “Cindy, I don’t love you for how you look, I love who you are”. Beautiful love.
